"Although I train swimmers all over the world through live virtual workouts and written workouts, I am passionate about educating coaches so they can train their own swimmers as well. One of the truly exciting things I have done in my career is create an online course and membership to educate coaches on how to train their swimmers on land most effectively and efficiently. I also do consulting and speaking with individuals, teams, and LSC’s - live during non-pandemic times and virtually at any point. It is so exciting to be able to positively impact swimmers health and performance whether it is directly through training them or indirectly through training their coaches. Injuries and lack of performance take the fun and joy out of the sport. I would love to have the opportunity to help make swimming the most positive experience possible for all swimmers and coaches globally." - Markell Lyng
